and departments. However, information collected by us is used only for
official purposes, internal reviews, improvement of the content of our
Website, customization of the content and layout of our Website and to
contact users. We do not use, share or pass on your information for
commercial purposes.
All record keepers face the possibility of disclosure of their records in
some civil, criminal, or administrative matter. Federal Board Of Revenue
could be required to disclose personal information in response to valid
legal processes such as a search warrant, subpoena, or court order.

or during emergencies if physical safety is believed to be at risk.
What Information About Users Does www.fbr.gov.pk Collect?
We consider any information that could reasonably be used to identify you as
"personally identifying information." The Federal Board Of Revenue does not
retain personally identifiable information about you when you visit our
Website unless you choose to provide such information to us (i.e. sending an
e-mail, registering as a user, participating in a survey, responding to a
feedback or "contact us" form, etc.)
E-Mail Communications and Web Forms
If you send us an electronic mail message with a question or comment that
contains personally identifying information, or fill out a form that e-mails
us information, we will use this personally identifying information only to
respond to your request. We may redirect your message to another government
agency or person who is in a better position to respond to your query or
comment.
All e-mail messages received contain the e-mail addresses of persons who
voluntarily communicated with or requested information from us. Your e-mail
addresses are not sold, leased or shared with any non-governmental or
commercial entities without the user's consent. When a user has given us
their e-mail address for purposes of communicating with or requesting
information from us, that communication becomes part of the public record
and may be subject to public inspection and copying if not protected by law.
Information submitted via e-mail or web forms may be at risk of being
intercepted, read or modified. You are advised not to pass on any personal
and confidential information such as security passwords and credit card
numbers while using this Website unless specifically required by an
